Not Be Essence That Cannot Be



                   Wild-Woman & The Profound Wishing


                                         it is not what the
           present permanence          is       it perishes

                                              the condition

                is
         craving.          from one
                           the 3rd state
                           I am rescued
                                             I function profoundly.
                   I am
                   of gold      Wishing
                                Wishing
                                             the kingly rule

                 my        brilliance    is the state

                                     of force become the Sun/
                           the green purify/ed
                                               &
                                                 eternal                                           

                         drench &
                         burn  laugh & 
                         find   gather & 
                         stroke  strike down
                         the evil nature/ O Empty!

                                              this is what binds
           first           a thousand years            the
                      comfort   new-born  thus true
                 existence
                                      celebration of two wings
                              of a bird
                                                the body
                       rising
                                   forming &
                                      wishing the
                                  presence
                              & gazing wonder
                                             the motion of
                       the Answer
                                             is folding
                                             life back
                                             to blood.
